1. The Benchmark
Scheme
Benchmark places responsibilities on both manufacturers and installers.The purpose is to ensure that customers are provided with the correctequipment for their needs, that is installed, commissioned and serviced inaccordance with the manufacturer’s instructions by competent persons andthat it meets the requirements of the appropriate Building Regulations. TheBenchmark Checklist can be used to demonstrate compliance with BuildingRegulations and should be provided to the customer for future reference.
Installers are required to carry out installation, commissioning and servicingwork in accordance with the Benchmark Code of Practice which is availablefrom the Heatinmg and Hotwater Industry Council who manage and promotethe Scheme. Visit www.centralheating.co.uk for more information.

This manual is an integral and essential part of the product. It should be kept with the appliance so that it can be consulted by the user and/or authorised personnel. The manual is to be left with the end user.
Please read carefully the instructions and notices about the appliancecontained in this manual, as they provide important information regarding thesafe installation, use and maintenance of the cylinder.Failure to do so may invalidate the guarantee.
When installing and servicing the cylinder, Ariston Thermo UK Ltdrecommend the use of protective clothing i.e. gloves.
The Ariston range of unvented cylinders come with varying guaranteesdepending on the model of cylinder. The guarantee periods offered witheach model of cylinder are as follows:
ST Range - 10 Years tank- 2 Years electrical components
Classico HE Range - 5 Years tank- 2 Years electrical components
Aquabravo Range - 25 Years tank- 2 Years electrical components
Note: The guarantee is subject to the cylinder being installed and servicedannually by a competent person as per the maintenance instructions inSection 5.6 of this manual. For units with the ProTech anti-corrosion deviceit must be ensured that this is connected and operating correctly (green LEDonly).
The immersion heater(s) are controlled through a thermostat which sensesthe water temperature. The operating temperature can be pre-set byadjusting the spindle in the head of the thermostat. In addition to thethermostat there is a thermal cut-out incorporated if the thermostat fails andthe water temperature rises too high. Once the cut-out operates it can onlybe re-set manually after the fault has been rectified.Indirect models have dual thermal controls. In addition to the above there is aseparate cylinder thermostat and thermal cut-out for controlling each indirectcircuit. Again the thermal cut-out operates if the cylinder thermostat fails, bydisconnecting the live feed (call for hot water) from the programmer.
ITI/ITD/ITSI models have a stainless steel tank and therefore need noprotection against corrosion.
STD/STI models have an enamelled steel tank and therefore are suppliedwith magnesium anodes to prevent corrosion of the cylinder tank. It isimperative that the top anode is checked during the annual service and iffound to be corroded both anodes should be replaced. Failure to do so willinvalidate the warranty of the tank.

The factory fitted temperature & pressure relief valve at the top of thecylinder is a safety device to back-up the thermostat(s) and thermal cut-out(s). It works by sensing an excess in water temperature or pressure andreleasing the hot water into a discharge tundish and drain.The cylinder will only work in the vertical position. The inlet pipe needs todeliver cold water to the bottom of the tank. When water is heated it expands.To accommodate this increase in volume an expansion vessel is provided. Acold water combination valve is also provided in two pieces, loose jointed forease of installation. These comprise a combined line strainer/pressurereducing valve and core non-return valve/expansion relief valve.
The Ariston range of Unvented Cylinders are available in the followingoptions:
The Wall-hung ProTech cylinder (100 litre model), which is supplied asfollows;

2.3 Delivery
The Wall-hung (ST) units utilise the ProTech anti-corrosion system(electronic anode). This prevents an electrolytic reaction between the tankand dissimilar metals. The ProTech system shows if it is operating correctly(green LED) or incorrectly (red LED). In the event that the red LED lights(even with the green light still showing), it is imperative that a service agentis contacted immediately as continued use with the ProTech system in thisstate could invalidate the warranty on the tank.
Note: Do not use a water softner on products with the ProTech anti-corrosionsystem.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1 wAter reGulAtions
3.2 BuilDinG reGulAtions
The appliance should be installed in accordance with the Domestic HeatingCompliance Guide.
These regulations (byelaws in Scotland) ensure a good supply ofwholesome water, and that only approved materials, pipes and fittings areused to convey water.
These are a statutory document and take priority over all other regulationsand recommendations. The installation of an unvented hot water storagecylinder is classified as a “Controlled Service” and Regulation G3 applies(England & Wales. For Scotland, NI and ROI, local Building Regulationsapply). To meet the requirements of the Regulation, installation of anunvented system should be undertaken by a “competent installer”.All installations of unvented hot water storage systems having a capacity ofmore than 15 litres should be notified to the relevant Local Authority bymeans of building notice or by the submission of full plans. It is important tonote that it is a criminal offense to install an unvented hot water storagesystem without notifying the Local Authority. The installation of the unventedcylinder and hot water system must comply with BS 6700 and the HSELegionella Code of Practice.
Current guidance notes do not cover the connection of a solar thermalcircuit to an unvented storage vessel (cylinder). However, if guidance issought for compliance with current regulations the fundamental principle isto provide a failsafe means of shutting off the solar input to the heatexchanger if the cylinder temperature should rise above the set temperatureof the cylinder’s energy cut out. (See Note 1).As with all unvented hot water systems, notification of intention to installshould be given to your local building control.
Option A. A non self resetting mechanical shut-off should be installed onthe solar primary flow to the cylinder. The mechanical shut-off should besuitable for use with a solar primary circuit (i.e. high temperature and glycolresistant). The mechanical shut-off should be integrated electrically with thecylinder energy cut out/s and if necessary the solar circuit temperaturecontrol, please refer to the solar controller manufacturer for furtherinformation.
Option B. Where the solar controller and hydraulic system demonstrate thatby no lesser means the requirement in Option A is satisfied by other means;certification by an approvals body is required to demonstrate that in theevent of the stored water going over temperature, the heat input to thecylinder is isolated by physical means and is non self resetting.These systems should be clearly identified with reference to the approvalsbody. (See Note 2)Note 1 :Whilst most solar cylinders use a coil type heat exchanger otheroptions such as external plate to plate devices , external annulars or ‘tank intank’ systems may be used but the same control options always apply.
Note 2 :Current approved bodies include the British Board of Agrement(BBA) , WRc-NSF Limited, or KIWA
The strainer prevents any debris entering the other controls. The pressurereducer ensures the correct operation of the expansion vessel, and preventsany damage to the control valves through too great a pressure.The non-return valve ensures the water expansion is forced into theexpansion vessel and prevents contamination of the mains cold watersupply. The expansion relief valve will discharge expanded water to thedischarge tundish if the expansion vessel fails.
It is important to ensure that the cold water main is capable of supplying theincreased demand which will be imposed on it. Hot and cold water are bothdrawn off the same source of supply. Remember, there will not be a storagetank to help compensate for variations in the demand on the system.

A minimum dynamic pressure of 1.5 bar or 20 litres per minute is requiredfor satisfactory operation. 85% of UK dwellings have a mains pressureabove 2.0 bar.note: tHe MAins wAter supply Must not exceeD 16 BAr.
The cylinder should be left packed until it is time to install. When unpackingthe appliance follow the guidelines within the packaging and take care not todamage the temperature and pressure relief valve, thermostats andimmersion heaters.
The cylinder may be installed in any convenient position. As it is connectedto the mains cold water supply. Consideration must be given to allow ease ofaccess and space for removal of components for maintenance purposes.
Additionally, do not install the unit in premises which may be subject tofreezing.
Ensure that the floor load bearing strength is adequate to take the weight ofthe cylinder when full of water (see tABle 1). e.g. Do not install the cylinderon floors made of chipboard or other flooring where the mechanical strengthis compromised when damp.
The ST100 ProTech models are wall mounted. All other models are freestanding.
All units must be installed in the verticAl position.
For maintenance purposes leave at least 500 mm free space in front of theunit, for access.
note: On Indirect models, ensure a balancing valve is fitted on the returnpipework from the cylinder coil.
iMportAnt: In the event that the installation of this cylinder wil require a thirdsensor to be fitted (i.e. Solar) please also refer to Section 3.3 GeneralGuidance options A and B (page 5) of this manual.

3.8 connection oF MAins
wAter supply
For floor standing models:On the front of the unit there is a label to identify the connection ports.Please check this before making any connection to the unit.
For units up to 300 litres it is recommended that all mains cold water supplypipe work is a minimum of 22mm. For 500 litre models the supply should be28mm. An isolating valve should be installed between the cold water supplyand the cylinder for servicing. ALL PIPEWORK MUST BE FLUSHED TOAVOID DAMAGE TO THE CONTROL VALVES.
Please refer to FiGs. 3.1 - 3.7 for a suggested installation layout.
Draining taps must be located in acessible postions to permit the draining ofthe whole cylinder. The taps must be a minimal size of at least 15mmnominal size (preferably 22mm), and manufactured in accordance with BS2879:1980.
When installing the expansion vessel Ariston recommend it be connecteddirectly to the combination valve (see Figs 3.9 - 3.10).
iMportAnt note:-
When installing the expansion vessel, Do not install the expansion vesselvertically as air can become trapped in the expansion vessel resulting innoise.
Do not use a flexible hose to connect the expansion vessel. This must behard piped in order to avoid vibration.
See below for acceptable installation practices.

It is recommended that a 22mm pipe run should supply the outletsthroughout the building, especially to baths and showers. Short runs of15mm pipe may be used to connect basins and sinks.
On selected floor-standing models a secondary return may be fitted (consultthe drawings on pages 10 and 11 and the label on the face of the unit forpresence/location). A non-return valve (not supplied) must be fitted toprevent back flow and a bronze pump will be needed in conjunction with apipe thermostat and timer to circulate the hot water (both not supplied).
Where a secondary return is not included on the cylinder, it is possible toutilise the mains inlet (see diagram below).
note: an extra expansion vessel may be required where the additionalvolume of the secondary return exceeds the capacity of the expansionvessel supplied.

note!
tHe sAFety relieF vAlves Must not Be useD For Any otHer purpose
1) Discharge pipes from the temperature & pressure relief and expansionrelief valve may be joined together.
2) The tundish must be vertical and fitted within 600mm of the temperature& pressure relief valve and must be located with the cylinder but awayfrom any electrical devices. The tundish must also be in a position visibleto the occupants, and positioned away from any electrical devices. Thedischarge pipe from the tundish should of metal and terminate in a safeplace where there is no risk to persons in the vicinity of the discharge.
3) The pipe diameter must be at least one pipe size larger than the nominaloutlet size of the safety device unless it's total equivalent hydraulicresistance exceeds that of a straight pipe 9m long.i.e. Discharge pipes between 9m and 18m equivalent resistance lengthshould be at least 2 sizes larger than the nominal outlet size of the safetydevice. Between 18m and 27m at least 3 larger, and so on.Bends must be taken into account in calculating the flow resistance.See FiG. 3.11 and tABle 2.
4) The discharge pipe must have a vertical section of pipe at least 300mmin length below the tundish, before any elbows or bends in the pipework.
5) The discharge pipe must be installed with a continuous fall and should beat least one pipe diameter clear of the wall where it terminates.
6) The discharge should be visible at both the tundish and the final point ofdischarge, but where this is not possible or practically difficult; thereshould be clear visibility at one or other of these locations. Examples ofacceptance are:
i) Ideally below a fixed grating and above the water seal in a trappedgully.
ii) Downward discharges at a low level; i.e. up to 100mm aboveexternal surfaces such as car parks, hard standings, grassedareas etc. These are acceptable providing that where childrenmay play or otherwise come into contact with discharges, a wirecage or similar guard is positioned to prevent contact, whilstmaintaining visibility.
iii) Discharges at high level; Onto a roof capable of withstanding hightemperature discharges of water 3m from any plastic gutteringsystems that would collect such a discharge (tundish visible).
iv) Where a single pipe serves a number of discharges, such as inblocks of flats, i.e. into a metal hopper and metal down pipe withthe end of the discharge pipe clearly visible (tundish visible ornot). the number served should be limited to not more than 6systems so that any installation can be traced reasonably easily.
The single common discharge pipe should be at least one pipesize large than the largest individual discharge pipe to beconnected. If unvented hot water storage systems are installedwhere discharges from safety devices may not be apparent i.e. indwellings occupied by the blind, infirm or disabled people,consideration should be given to the installation of anelectronically operated device to warn when discharge takesplace.
Note: The discharge will consist of scalding water and steam. Asphalt,roofing felt and non-metallic rainwater goods may be damaged bysuch discharges.

The example below is for a G1⁄2 temperature & pressure relief valve with adischarge pipe (D2) having 4 no. elbows and length of 7m from the tundishto the point of discharge.
From tABle 2;
Maximum resistance allowed for a straight length of 22mm copper dischargepipe (D2) from G1⁄2 temperature & pressure valve is 9m. Subtract theresistance for 4 no. 22mm elbows at 0.8m each = 3.2m. Therefore themaximum permitted length equates to: 5.8m. As 5.8m is less than the actuallength of 7m therefore calculate the next largest size.Maximum resistance allowed for a straight length of 28mm pipe (D2) fromG1⁄2 temperature & pressure valve equates to: 18m. Subtract the resistancefor 4 no. 28mm elbow at 1.0m each = 4m. Therefore the maximum permittedlength equates to: 14mAs the actual length is 7m, a 28mm (D2) copper pipe will be satisfactory.

The electrical installation must be in accordance with the current I.E.E.wiring regulations.
protecH electronic Anti-corrosion systeM (st 100 models
only)
iMportAnt: The ProTech anti-corrosion system MUST be permanentlyconnected to a fused non-switched 240V electricity supply.
The ProTech system, an exclusive solution, is an electronic anti-corrosionprotection system which ensures maximum longevity of the appliance. Theelectronic circuit creates a difference in potential between the hot water tankand the titanium electrode, thereby guaranteeing optimum protection of thetank and preventing corrosion.
Note: Do not use a water softner on products with the ProTech anti-corrosion system.
To ensure the proper operation of the protection system, it Must Be
perMAnently connecteD to A FuseD non-switcHeD 240v, 3A
electricity supply even in the event of shut-down of the system. Toprevent risk to the appliance’s lifespan when disconnecting the protectionsystem for an extended period of time, it is necessary to drain the appliancebeforehand.
In addition to the 240V network, the electronic circuit is also connected tothe tank, which is to be protected, and to the titanium protection electrode,
inForMAtion For tHe enD user
Proper operation of the protection system is shown by a continuous greenL.E.D, indicating that the circuits terminals are being supplied with electricity.
In the event of failure, a red LED indicates that there is a short-circuitbetween the electrode and the cylinder tank, that one of the leads (tank orelectrode) is disconnected or that there is no water in the cylinder.Your appliance is thus properly protected when the green L.E.D. isilluminated and the red LED is off. Should this not be the case or should thegreen and red LED light simultaneously, please contact your installer.
Direct systeMs
A mains supply of 240V, 3kW (13 amps) is required. Heat resistant cable,round 3 or 4 core 2.5mm2 (to BS6141 table 8) must be used to connect theelectrical supply through the Economy 7 time control switch using eithersystem ‘A’ or ‘B’ as illustrated in Fig. 3.12.

4. COMMISSIONING The thermostat(s) on the immersion heater(s) should be adjusted to trip at60-65°C. This is the ideal temperature to prolong element life in hard waterareas. Scale on the sheath builds up more rapidly at temperatures abovethis causing the element to overheat and premature failure can occur. Highertemperatures without additional controls would result in scalding. In knownhard water areas the use of a scale inhibitor is also recommended.
In addition to the thermostat the thermal cut-out will switch power off to theelement should the thermostat malfunction, causing an excessive rise inwater temperature. The thermal cut-out can be reset manually after the faulthas been corrected.
inDirect systeMs
For models up to 300 litres a mains supply of 240V, 3kW (13 amps) will berequired for the direct immersion heater. heat resistant cable, round 3 core2.5mm2 (to BS6141) must be used. For High Capacity 500 litre modelsconsult the wiring diagram on page 20 of this manual.
For indirect controls a 240V, 3 amp supply is required.
The cables must be clamped in position (as previously stated) and thecontrol thermostat should be set at 60°C for the reasons above. In additionto the thermostat there is a thermal cut-out should the thermostat fail. Referto FiG. 3.13.
wArninG : tHe AppliAnce Must Be eArtHeD.
The earth continuity conductor of the electrical installation must beeffectively connected to all exposed parts of other appliances and servicesin the room in which the water heater is to be installed and conform to theI.E.E. wiring regulations.

5. MAINTENANCE To ensure efficient and safe operation, and to maintain the warranty, it isnecessary to ensure the appliance is serviced annually by a competentperson.
Before servicing, preliminary electrical system checks must be carried out toensure electrical safety (i.e. polarity, earth continuity, resistance to earth andshort circuit).
NOTE: While there is no direct inspection access point on the cylinder, it may be possible to use the immersion heater boss(es) for this purpose.
wArninG: SWITCH OFF THE POWER SUPPLY BEFORE WORKING ONTHE APPLIANCE.
trouble-shooting:
1) The green L.E.D. is NOT on:- Check to see that the circuits electric plug is connected (if not,connect);
- Check to see that the P.C.B, is supplied with electricity (if not, replacethe supply cable);
- Check to see that 230 V electricity is supplied (if not, ensure that 230 Vis supplied);
- If all these checks fail to locate the problem, replace the electroniccircuit (installer).
2) The red L.E.D. is on:- Check to see that the tank is filled with water (if not, fill it beforecarrying out the following checks);
- Check to see that the clip-on circuit connector is in the proper position(if not, position correctly);
- Check to see that the electrodes connection lead is property connected(to check this, gently pull on it) (if not, replace the electrode);
- Check to see that the connection lead to the tank is properly connectedto the tank (if not, connect properly); .
- Check to see that the two leads from the clip-on circuit connector arenot damaged, stripped, etc. (if so, replace the electrode);
- If all these checks fail to locate the problem, replace the electroniccircuit.
note: To replace the P.C.B, there is no need to drain the cylinder;1) Disconnect the two supply cables from the P.C.B. to the supply terminal;2) Disconnect the clip-on circuit connector and polarising slot whichconnects the circuit to the tank and the electrode;
3) Disconnect the P.C.B. from its supporting plate (plastic clips in the 4corners) and;
4) Replace the defective circuit with a new one, then re-install in reverseorder to the above.
If the thermal cut-out has operated the cause must be found before resetting(see section 6).
Should the immersion heater(s) become scaled, we would recommend thatthe immersion heaters be replaced, a scale reducer be fitted on the coldwater supply to the cylinder and that the thermostat is set below 60OC toprevent further scale formation.
Check controls as per the following:1) Line strainer - with the water supply turned off remove screen fromstrainer and clean off any debris;
2) Expansion vessel - with the water supply turned off and taps open, check

check manually by lifting the test lever/turning the test knob (ensure valvecloses after testing);
4) Expansion relief valve - check manually by turning the test knob (ensurevalve closes after testing);
5) Discharge pipes (D1) - from both temperature & pressure relief andexpansion relief valve for obstructions;
6) Tundish & discharge pipe (D2) - open either valve gradually to produce afull bore discharge into tundish and D2 without any back pressure;
7) Pressure reducing valve - check that the correct outlet pressure is beingmaintained by recording the pressure at an in-line terminal fitting e.g. tap.
Ensure that all thermostats are adjusted for the correct temperature setting,this should be between 60 and 65°C.
To ensure efficient and safe operation, and to maintain the warranty, it isnecesary to ensure the appliance is serviced annually by a competentperson.
After servicing, preliminary electrical system checks must be carried out toensure electrical safety (i.e. polarity, earth continuity, resistance to earth andshort circuit).
To drain the cylinder it is necessary to proceed as follows:
1) Close the mains supply service valve;2) Open hot water taps;3) Attach a hose and open the drain cock and allow the cylinder to empty,taking care of hot water contained in the cylinder.(Pumping the water out will completely drain the cylinder)
Magnesium Anodes (stD and sti models only)
No longer than every 12 months, the installer should check the magnesiumanti-corrosion anodes (consult the label on the face of the unit for the correctlocation). Assessment of the condition of the bottom anode (where fitted)can be made by judging the condition of the top anode.
Removal of anodes;
1) Close the mains supply service valve;2) Open hot water taps;3) Attach a hose and open the drain cock and allow the cylinder to empty;4) The anodes are removed by unscrewing;
EXAMINE THE ANODES AND IF THE DIAMETER IS LESS THAN 10mmreplace both anodes.
The use of an approved P.T.F.E. sealing tape is required to ensure watertightconnection for anodes.
